This by far is my favorite workout DVDs.There is a 20 minute DVD, which I highly recommend for beginners, and there is a 50 minute DVD for advanced and quicker results.I can do both DVDs with ease, and after each workout I do feel tighter and more toned.I really like the 20 minute DVD because it gives me a quick workout and I barely break a sweat, but I can feel it working.However, you should be warned that some of the moves are intense, especially in the 50 minute DVD. So, if you’re not flexible, you might want to start out with the 20 minute DVD and take it slow.

My mother, who used to teach aerobics and goes to the gym every day, hurt her back while attempting the 50 minute DVD (it should be noted she never even tried the 20 minute DVD first).This is how I inherited the Mari Winsor Pilates DVDs for free, because my mom was in too much pain to ever use it again.However, I decided not to follow in my mother’s footsteps, and completed the 20 minute DVD for several weeks, before I advanced to the 50 minute DVD.

The Winsor Pilates website and infomercials promise results in several weeks by only working out 3 times a week for 20 minutes a day.While, I am sure you will see results by taking this route, I do recommend working out at least 4 to 5 times per week, from my own personal experience.I also noticed that since my mother purchased the DVDs several years ago, the Winsor Pilates website now offers additional products, such as a 10 minute Sculpting Blast Workout, and a bonus Sculpting Circle.

All in all, I really like these DVDs and feel tighter and more toned after I workout. I also feel that the exercises in this collection help ease tension and stretch out your body, providing greater flexibility.
